It would be nice if we had a user-configurable countdown timer length when approaching a waypoint. I've almost missed the turn a couple times when the timer popped up saying to turn to heading XYZ in 10 seconds or whatever the length is. It would be nice if we could set it to another value just like the tank switch timer allows other time intervals than just one.

Pretty sure I have a "Time to Waypoint" choice in the user configs setup. I know it's tracking it because my EX500 shows it. Put it on the Data strip on the right side of the map. k
